OWC 2TB Envoy Pro Elektron USB-C Portable NVMe SSD

I use it as a Time Machine drive for a Mac Studio.

This SSD Drive far exceeded my expectations. Easy to set up and once I got my OS installed on it my computer flew.

I have moved past the other guys (G-tech, Western Digital, ...) and am sold on OWC. This unit is fast, really sturdy, and works perfectly on macOS and Windows. There are lower-cost external SSDs but I can vouch for the level of technical support I have gotten from OWC. I have had two external units (not the Elektron) go bad and they fix it (or replace) from the USA as urgent care (fast!).

Speed is amazing and the power drain on USB is minimal allowing me to use in a hub (Thunderbolt external drives wont always work on a Mac). I bought two more.

This SSD is being used as an external storage device for my M1 Mac Mini setup. I’m not doing anything fancy with it, it will be used with Time Machine as well as a partition for other things. It’s an upgrade from my old external HD.

Got this for my new Mac system for audio production. It’s the best external drive Ive ever used. By far

I started my External Drive shopping with the Samsung T7 and wasnt happy at all as the write speed was hovering right around 100MBs. This is MUCH better than that but still nowhere near the stated 1000+MBs I was hoping for. Still, Id recommend it.

For years Ive relied on RAID drives for my main drive. Decided to go to SSD for my main files (backed up hourly, daily etc etc) and the change in speed of all things is fast fast fast.

Very good product support at time of installation from OWC Team.

This thing is tiny and feels like solid steel. Amazing! Stuck it to the back of my iMac, and set it up as a boot clone and backup without issues.
